N/S Rear tyre wear on SEAT Toledo - mss1tw
Just noticed that the outer edge of the rear left/near side tyre on my car seems to be wearing oddly, almost like the fronts do from cornering too hard. It lacks the sharpness of the rest of the tyre.

The other side is fine. Any ideas what this could be?

Just the 1 tyre? Unlikely to be just the nut behind the wheel if so.

Bushes, bearings, shcock absorber, springs etc etc in that corner would be where I would be looking.
